Subject: Re: vnc/ssh/putty


I have made a few changes, I was confusing myself with the ports.  On 
the router....  port 22 is open on public and private side (having 5901 
on public side was confusing me).  Inside of Putty....  (ssh connection 
works) I have a tunnel that looks like this.... "R5901   
my_ip_here:5901".  Should this be an L instead of an R?  When I open 
vncviewer and use localhost:1, I get unable to connect to host, 
connection refused (10061).  If these settings are correct, should 
localhost:1 work or should I enter something else in the initial viewer 
window?
